since most people will never fully stretch the cord out fully.

Numerous platform shipping scales, many of which
are sold in the office supplies stores, use only one load cell
in the center of the platform. This design uses 4 levers
that transfer the force applied to the platform to a tiny single
load cell in the center. This design depends upon multiple
fulcrum points. Having additional moving parts increases
the chances of failure. The arms can easily bend if the
load applied to the platform isn't properly centered on the
scales. The Adam CPW eliminates all these possible
failures by implementing 4 individual load cells which is more
expensive way to build a scale.
